Butterflies

Kacey Musgraves wrote this song the week after that she met singer-songwriter Ruston Kelly. The pair got engaged on Christmas Eve in 2016, after he proposed to her at Musgraves' childhood home in Golden, Texas. I was just coastin' Never really goin' anywhere Caught up in a web I was gettin' kinda used to stayin' there And out of the blue I fell for you "It's actually the first song I wrote after meeting my now-husband," said Musgraves. "Everything from the lyrics down to the production really represents this floaty, dreamy feeling that I got as soon as he came into my life. I wrote this song with Natalie Hemby and Shane McAnally back in 2016 in the Spring when I had gotten off the road and tried to get back to my creative roots of just writing again just to write and explore new ideas. I had just met Ruston, so my world had been completely flipped upside down, so this is a great sonic representation of that."

Musgraves performed the song for the first time on the January 21, 2017 episode of A Prairie Home Companion radio show.

The song's music video was shot in Mexico City by "Space Cowboy" director Courtney Phillips.
